Unearthed Bucket List

This morning I was cleaning out my Franklin Planner from back in my (paid) working days.  I decided to go back to the planner instead of scratching things down on a random cute spiral notebook that I pick up at Target every quarter.  This movement is in the hopes of making my life a little more organized.

While I was looking through the left over pieces of paper, business cards and items on my To Do List from 2002, I ran across a list I had shoved in the back of my planner.  It was my once written and long forgotten Bucket List.  Here it is:

Things to do b/4 I die

1. Start my own company, catering and/or store
2. Raise loving, self confident and self loving children
3. Get my masters
4. Go to Greece
5. Go to Europe
6. Go to Italy
7. Learn another language
8. Learn pottery
9. Work in a kitchen to learn more about cooking
10. Triathlon
11. Make a quilt

It feels like I have opened a little time capsule to myself.

I’m happy to say I have knocked off number #1, the catering company.  For those of you who did not know, an old friend and I once owned and operated  our own catering company for two years.  It was called Eat, Drink & Mary. It was a lot of fun and a lot of very hard work.

As for #2, raising children is a life long endeavor.  I guess I will only know if I have succeeded in this matter a little later.

#10 is scratched off.  As most of you know, I have jumped whole hog into triathlons.

As for the rest of the items, I will keep them there, work on them, determine if I still want them there and even add some new ones.

What’s on your list?
